Welcome to SOUND ADVICE, Interview’s weekly destination for playlists curated by our friends, enemies, and lovers. In recent weeks, we’ve collected playlists from Rico Nasty, Mel Ottenberg, and Lizzi Bougatsos. Now, buckle up for a trip to Mechatok’s Berlin bunker—a place where synths buzz like your ancient laptop desperately clinging to life. The mastermind behind some of Yung Lean, Charli XCX, and Oklou’s moodiest moments is finally stepping into the spotlight with his first solo single, “Expression on Your Face,” with assists from Bladee and Ecco2k. It’s the kind of track that feels like crying quietly in a club so crowded that nobody notices. To mark the occasion, Mechatok answered our Sound Advice questionnaire (no sunglasses indoors, he says) and made us a playlist that drifts through a late-night studio haze, featuring Madonna’s “Get Together” and Daft Punk’s “Something About Us.”
